The program piloted in 2018 in 15 Brooklyn schools. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced on Monday that the plans would expand to include all 1.1 million students in city public schools by the fall of 2019.
Some critics say that while lowering meat consumption can be good for health, it depends on what is substituted for it. A grilled cheese sandwich, for example, may have almost as much saturated fat as meat.
